LOCATION:Bay View Room
DESCRIPTION:*/Climate Change Adaptation for Seaport Communities: A Research Agenda/*\n \n \n As a scientist working at the interface of ocean dynamics and human systems\, \n Prof. Austin Becker's work develops insights that contribute fundamental \n knowledge about the coastal environment. Such knowledge is critical in an \n emergent era of more frequent extreme coastal weather events coupled with \n great uncertainty about how people along affected coasts will respond or \n adapt to them. Oceanic forcing from sea-level rise and storm surge confronts \n vulnerable people and the communities in which they live. Prof. \n Becker's focus is on seaports as an exemplar to understand the broader \n consequences of increasing risk to climate-driven natural disasters\, as well \n as the options available to enhance resilience. Seaports serve a critical \n role in the economy at every scale\, facilitating 90% of world trade\, \n providing goods and services to their regions\, and supporting 13 million jobs \n in the U.S. alone. Ports also face a combination of risks within the \n environmental\, social\, economic\, and political landscape. They consist of \n complex and interdependent decision-making governance structures\, and their \n geographical and intermodal requirements constrain them to environmentally \n sensitive and exposed locations. Hurricane Sandy\, for example\, resulted in \n $170M of direct damages to the Port of NY/NJ and major supply chain \n disruptions that rippled across the country. Planning holistically for the \n long-term and complex challenge of climate change adaptation requires the \n fundamental knowledge generated in his research. \n \n Prof. Becker’s research group focuses on the question: *How can ports and \n their associated communities jointly develop comprehensive approaches and \n solutions that reduce climate-related risk in a way that is\, sustainable\, \n affordable and just?* He will discuss various projects underway in his \n research lab\, including: vulnerability and resilience assessments\, resilience \n indexing\, leadership incentives\, and more.\n \n Refreshments will be served.\n \n Please RSVP to marineaffairs@rwu.edu [1].\n \n \n \n \n \n \n [1] mailto:marineaffairs@rwu.edu

DESCRIPTION:6:30 p.m. Doors Open\n 7:00 p.m. Performance Begins (approx. 40 mins.)\n 7:45 p.m. Question & Answer session\n \n **\n \n *Behind Closed Doors* is an original play written and performed by survivors \n of domestic violence from Sisters Overcoming Abusive Relationships (SOAR)\, a \n task force of Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence (RICADV). This \n performance is a true account of their experiences with domestic violence\, \n hope and survival\, and seeks to draw you into their lives to dispel the \n stigmas of this often misunderstood abuse.\n \n The script was crafted by Trinity Repertory Company teaching artists Michael \n Williams and Francesca Montanile\, who mentored the SOAR members in \n cultivating their performances. The play was developed over ten 90-minute \n sessions in which the survivors journaled\, wrote poetry and told stories that \n were weaved into a play composed completely of their own words. The women \n speak both their own words and the words of their fellow survivors. \n \n The performance will be followed by a Q&A with the members of SOAR.\n \n This event is free and open to the campus community.\n \n *Sponsored by* the RWU Women's Law Society\, the RWU School of Law Dean of \n Students Office\, the RWU Women’s Center\, The Locker Room (Men’s \n Initiative)\, and the RWU's Department of Residence Life & Housing.\n \n \n \n \n \n

LOCATION:School of Law\, Room 276
DESCRIPTION:Energy Psychology\, better known as Energy Tapping is taking the world of \n psychological counseling and the treatment of many physical problems to a new \n and exciting level. This procedure has been demonstrated on numerous TV shows \n such as: Dr. Oz\, The View\, LEEZA\, Phil Donahue\, Whoopi Goldberg Special\, and \n CNN to name a few. The book “The Tapping Solutions” sold 600\,000 its \n first three months and was a New York Times best seller. Because it is so \n easy to learn and use\, it is often referred to as the peoples’ therapy. The \n technique combines Chinese Medicine principles developed over 5\,000 years ago \n and still used today in China along with a group of psychological \n professionals from the U.S. One would think a set of techniques that are \n simple\, effective where others have failed\, and provides permanent cures\, \n would be embraced by our health care system. Currently\, fifty-two countries \n are using Energy Psychology and only recently have the vast majority of \n mental health and medical professionals begun to study\, write and do research \n that can stand up to intense scrutiny proving the value of Energy Psychology.\n \n Why such resistance in the United States to Energy \n Psychology? The answer simply put is money. This is a non-medicine approach \n and pharmaceutical companies are the most powerful group of lobbyists. They \n have invested a great deal of influence and money to discourage research and \n the use of these techniques in the current psychological and medical \n communities. The AMA has also been highly resistant\, refusing to even take \n Energy Psychology seriously\, even though therapists and their clients report \n amazing results.\n \n This seminar will be presented by Dr. Ronald N. \n Mancini\, Clinical Director of Dr. Ronald N. Mancini and Associates Inc.\, who \n serve as the Student Assistance Program for the School of Law.\n \n The seminar will focus on stress\, anxiety\, depression\, eliminating urges \n and cravings from alcohol to food\, as well as how to conquer procrastination\, \n increase motivation and energy\, and obtaining peak performance when studying\, \n writing papers\, taking exams\, and enjoying socializing with others.\n \n Come with an open mind and learn some tools that have \n the ability to improve your life now and in the future. If you can attend \n only part of the seminar\, please do\, as the handouts will be very helpful.\n \n Supporters Say Results Show Energy Psychology Works [1]\n \n \n [1] http://nationalpsychologist.com/2013/07/supporters-say-results-show-energy-psychology-works/102138.html

Most \n prisoners are poor\, undereducated\, and underemployed.\n \n *THE COSTS ARE STAGGERING\n *The correctional system in America is an $80 billion enterprise. The cost \n to our communities and individual lives is incalculable.\n \n *MASS INCARCERATION HAS NOT MADE US SAFER\n *Mass incarceration is the result of changes in policy\, not an increase in \n crime. In recent years\, a number of states have successfully reduced \n incarceration while maintaining reductions in crime.\n \n *AND IN RHODE ISLAND* … *WE ALSO HAVE MASS PROBATION\n *Over 24\,000 of our citizens are on probation–--the fourth highest \n probation rate in the country – making it harder for them to educate \n themselves\, obtain jobs\, and acquire the full benefits of citizenship. We \n also have one of the highest cost-per-offender rates in the United States.\n \n *MOVING TOWARD SOLUTIONS\n *The symposium will be a forum for collective conversation among those who \n care deeply about our criminal justice system. We will work together to \n examine the problems of mass incarceration and mass probation and move \n forward toward solutions.\n \n *Special thanks to:*\n Dean Michael J.
